Someone mentioned something about in the US, this would be illegal due to DRM laws - not sure about the specifics of this, but regardless an open source printer seems like something we've needed for ages, as printers are something that always seem like way more of a headache then they need to be. It seems like such a simple technology that has existed for quite some time, but they are always such a pain to deal with. (Maybe it's just my bad luck with printers?)

AWESOME!!!

The images and videos scared me a bit, thinking this only supports rolls, but seemingly it does also work with A4.

The roll+cutter allows printing in both A4 and A3 which is amazing.

It looks like it is a roll as an input, but the printer has an integrated cutter.

Edit: looks like I was wrong

Found on another page: https://www.opentools.studio/

It clearly says...

Supported paper formats

North American letter, tabloid, and 11-inch wide paper roll European A4, A3, and 297 mm-wide paper roll

I guess then A4 is supported as an input.

Yeah, that's what I read.

Looks like I was wrong. There is animation showing that it cuts A4 out of the roll and no pictures without roll.

But I found one with A4 loaded here: https://www.opentools.studio/
